  ABSTRACT: Arabic language has been taught in Malaysian primary schools since 2005 and now, this language already spreads and reaches the non-Malay pupils including Bidayuh pupils. As for Bidayuh, this language is their foreign language whereby it took about their fifth place after their mother-tongue and other languages such as English and Bahasa Melayu Sarawak. By that, clearly it is a tough work to do for the teacher to teach this language. This paper will discuss qualitatively what are the challenges faced by the teacher to teach the Bidayuh’s pupils Arabic. It is found that there are seven challenges that the teacher needs to resolve. This paper also seeks and highlights the reasons why it happens and suggests several solutions that relevant for the teacher to apply in order to make the lesson more interesting so the pupils are more excited to learn.
